"Let’s be honest, when you’re young and thinking about getting old you probably worry about two things: will I still be coherent, and can I still have sex?" I initially read that as "will I still be continent". I guess I back myself to be able to dribble crap from my mouth well into old age, but it's the other end that concerns me. While I hope to live past 100 ("live forever or die trying"), a key part of my happiness philosophy is "Plan to live forever. Be prepared to die today". In other words, don't plan a life that will be happy in the distant future if you're not happy with it right now. The future may not arrive for you, or worse still you will create a habit of always living in the future and never enjoying your present.
